So basically from reading the comments, you have just been trimming away excess leaves with no topping/fimming? Despite it being an autflower? Well, the only thing I can say to you is.. my hat's off to you sir. :D There is this general assumption, that even if you look at an autflower the wrong way (you know what I mean), it will stress out too much and your yield will be insignificant... all to do with the fact that it's an autflower. Well, your journal is definitely evidence that this is not the case, as this autflower is booming. Nice work man, I'm slowely taking into account of trimming leaves on my next autoflwer. Mine is currently in week 5, so I think that's a bit too late.

Anyways, keep up the good work.
Thanks man I appreciate it! Yeah she is fully grown and I am harvesting this friday. Trimming has helped so much in her veg and flowering growth. Despite what people say, trimming fan leaves won't hurt your girls. Everyone says different but my method I tried worked well and have been doing so since then. I find the leaves just act as shade. They may store plant energy or water, but they are watered to often to be worried about that. Any excess vegetation just consumes energy and water. The plant will focus it's growth around the area that has been trimmed of all fan leaves. Now if you take a look at all of my updates. You can see I trimmed everything but new leaves. Those new leaves feed the new growth. So why trim? You wait until the area with the leaf to be mature and can take care of itself. To make a long story shorter than the book I just typed. The fan leaves act as parents to the main stem and branches until they can grow on their own.

Feel free to check out my grow... I'm an old school outdoor grower experiencing with indoor. So far I'm loving it, just growing a few bag seed I found in some good smoke this past year. Hope to get a feel of things then I'm gonna try some real strains, got a couple blueberry kush, and xj-13 I wanna try. At the moment xj is one of my favs... it gives you a nice energetic high
